Myles, Brenda Smith; Simpson, Richard L.

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v23 n4 p234-39 Apr 1990

Parents of elementary students with learning disabilities (N=129) responded to questionnaires about types of modifications most facilitative of parental acceptance of full-time mainstreaming. Responses indicated parental participation in mainstreaming processes as an important factor in successful integration. Parents were supportive of full-time mainstreaming, contingent on implementation of recommended modifications. (Author/PB)
